New arrivals today

[Elaine Ross]

The postie arrived sharp this morning with my new slings. I got 2 A. sp. amazonica (brazil) and 1 H. lividum (freebie).
I will take pics later before the H. lividum disappears never to be seen again down a well dug burrow (well once the camera battery is charged lol)

All 3 were lively, read that as shooting out up my arms etc, as I was transfering them to their new homes The lividum may be small but I got a threat display already hee hee. Funny wee soul.

[Elaine Ross]

Yip James it was cute and way too funny lol. The little soul tried so hard to look mean but failed miserably.

The funiest threat display i got was from a tiny like 0.5cm Yamia sp. "Koh Samui" spiderling LOL!

nice new additions elaine ive got some today too through the post hehe , and i am getting some avicularia babies posted for me tomorrow,

[Nicola Dolby]

The funniest thing I ever got with a threat display was the look on my face when I opened my P. ornata tank early one sunday morning and didn't notice the startled spider sitting just inside. Its amazing how fast you can move when you see those yellow stripes!!!!

I think I would move fast too Nicola lol. Scary.

Here is one of the 2 A. amazonica's that arrived today. The other just wasnt co-operating lol



And the little H. lividum. Cute wee tyke but this is probably the last we shall see of her for a while.



You can see a slight hint of blue in this pic.



This is the Avic I already had but just took the opportunity for a photo while I had the camera out.

I remember laughing when my H.Lividum gave threat displays as a tiny sling. Have to take them a bit more seriously now!!

[Kain Prestwood]

Now that makes me nervous Greg. Gorgeous spider but just little bit scary

Nice new T's there Elaine! Where did you order them from?

Kain

Thanks Kain. I bought them from a girl on another forum who gets them from someone in Germany.

Thanks Elaine, though I have just ordered some Avic of Lee.

Will post some pics tomorrow. I quite like the sound of the 'Peru Purple'

Kain

[Elaine Ross]

Oh drat, I just spent all my money. I like the peru purple too Kain so I'm after a couple of those next. Its just a pity that Lee got them in at the wrong time for me

I look forward to pics tomorrow
